Lila's POV

I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down before turning to him with a fake smile. Though honestly, it was impossible for the smile to stay fake because of how good Ethan looked at that moment.

Shirtless. Sleepy. Breathtaking.

For a second, my mind completely blanked.

Pull yourself together, Lila.

“I’m going home, Ethan,” I said finally.

“Just like that?” he asked as he walked closer toward me. “You didn’t even let me wake up.” He stopped in front of me, close enough to make m

    Alexander's POV"What the hell, Maya!" I thundered, rising to my feet so fast my chair rolled back."Calm down.""Don't tell me to calm down. Why did he do that to her? Why?" My voice was loud enough to shake the walls. If my office wasn't soundproof, the whole floor would have heard me.I needed to get to him. Now. I snatched my blazer and my car keys and headed for the door."Alexander, you can't face him with that kind of anger in you," Maya said.I didn't stop. I yanked the door open and but stopped dead. "Emma?" I whispered.Just like that, the fire in me went out. She had no idea what she did to me. She never tried, and still she could calm me with one look.She wore a short red dress that showed off her long legs, and I let my eyes travel over her slowly. My gaze climbed back to her face, then settled on her lips. I wanted to crush my mouth against hers right there, but I held back. Her baby face had turned red. She knew exactly how I was looking at her.The way she blushed at

    Alexander's POVSeeing those tears in her eyes did something to me that I was trying very hard not to show.I changed, grabbed my car keys, and walked out. I saw Jessica on the way but I didn't stop. I just left.I zoomed off to my penthouse, driving too fast, my grip tight on the wheel. The position I met Emma and Maxwell in kept flashing through my head like a video I couldn't pause. The closeness. His hand on her face. Their lips almost touching.Fuck...Fuck.I slammed my hand on the steering wheel and sped up.She wants to go back to him? She can do that.But my heart hurt the moment I said those words to myself. Because the truth was, the thought of losing her to Maxwell made me feel something I couldn't even name. Something violent and desperate and terrifying.My phone started ringing nonstop. I glanced at the screen. Foster.He better have something important to say.I picked up."Good evening, sir.""Speak, Foster." My voice came out colder than I intended, my eyes fixed on t

  • The Billionaire Who Wants All of Me   Chapter 42: Are You Still In Love With Maxwell?

    Emma's POV"Alex. Maya."The words came out barely above a whisper.He stood in the doorway with Maya right beside him. Anger and jealousy hit me at the same time and I didn't know which one to feel first.I was so shocked I couldn't even speak. What was he doing here? In this room? With Maya? My eyes left his and moved to her. She was dressed in a black overall, hair pulled into a tight ponytail. All black. She looked devilish, like she belonged to the shadows.Her eyes were fixed on Maxwell the moment she walked in. Then she looked at me."Hi, Emma," she said with a small smile that didn't come close to reaching her eyes.I almost rolled my eyes but caught myself. I pulled my gaze back to Alex instead. He was staring at me with a face I couldn't read. Like I'd done something wrong.OF CAUSE YOU DID. YOU ALMOST KISSED YOUR EX, EMMA. My own mind betrayed me, and that was when I realized Maxwell and I were still standing close together, too close, exactly where we had been when the doo

  • The Billionaire Who Wants All of Me   Chapter 41: She Didn't Pull Away

    Emma's POVOn my way home, I kept going back and forth in my head about whether to call Alex and ask him to come with me tonight. But then I remembered, he was actually honoring the space I had asked for. So I pushed the thought aside.When I got home and stepped inside, I found Alex sitting on the couch.What was he doing here? Is he here to apologize? That was the only thought running through my mind.His eyes met mine the moment I walked in, and he scanned me slowly from head to toe. Then he spoke, his voice low and commanding.Where did you go this early morning? Judging by your outfit... you didn't go for a run."I caught Lila out of the corner of my eye, standing at her bedroom door. She gave me a wide-eyed look that said NOTHING then disappeared back into her room and pulled the door shut behind her.My eyes went back to him. I couldn't tell if he was here to apologize or interrogate me and either way I wasn't in the mood."Mr. Walton," I said, keeping my voice steady. "What a

    Emma's POVI stretched lazily across the bed the next morning, forcing my eyes open one at a time.Alex's side was empty."Looking for me?"His voice made me sit up. He was on the couch across the room, shirtless, watching me with those eyes that always seemed to see too much. He looked annoyingly good and he knew it.I scoffed and looked away, but not before my eyes traced his chest, his arms, his lips, which immediately dragged my mind back to last night when he was practically beggin to kiss me. The memory almost made me smile.Come on, Emma. You're supposed to be angry.I cleared my throat and made to stand up, but before I could even swing my legs off the bed, he was already moving. In one fluid motion he had me pinned back against the mattress, his body hovering over mine. My heart slammed against my ribs.He reached up and gently brushed the hair from my face, his fingers lingering against my cheek. When he spoke, his voice was thick, heavy with something that made it impossibl

    Lila's POV"How many do you need?" the fish seller asked."Two," I said, looking around the local market. I'd never been here before. A colleague at the office had recommended it after I mentioned craving fish soup. I paid and made my way back to the car.The moment I got in, my phone buzzed with a message from an unknown number. I clicked on it."Hi, it's Sophia. Come to Mr. Patrick's cafe. I'll be waiting until you show up. It's about Emma."I stared at the screen for a second, then scoffed. She's lost her mind. She still has the audacity to reach out to me."It's about Emma?"I laughed out loud to no one. The nerve of this girl. I started the car and drove home. By the time I got in it was already evening.I set the fish on the counter, got the soup going, but something didn't feel right. That feeling, the kind that crawls under your skin and won't leave kept gnawing at me.My mind kept circling back to those three words. It's about Emma. I stared at the pot on the fire for a long m
